Motorcycle accessories are expensive.
Now she wants saddlebags and a custom seat!

This is a 15" chiruwa village AK. Fit and finish are rough. Very sturdy knife, 7/16" spine thickness. I JB Welded the slabs and used brass tubing through the holes. Steel fittings. Good scabbard. No chakma or karda (Make your own.)
Great project knife or one to use and keep your HI's pretty.

$50.00 or best offer. You won't break this one, bubba.

Also have an M43 I got from Wildmanh. You can see it on Heber's knife and tool page. Excellent shape. $125.00 or best offer.

Thanks to Uncle for allowing this post here.
Prices include US mail shipping in the CONUS.

That is a DANG NICE M43! If I had the money I would buy it back in a heart beat. Hope it finds a good home and fast.
It was made by Kesar last year and he did a great job. IIRC the handle slabs are Rose Wood. The pictures that Mike mentioned can be found here: HI M43 by Kesar
 
Thanks, Heber.
I now have 2 M43's and I am letting this one go because the one I got from T-Bone just fits me a little better. Also, there's the cost of those durned saddlebags....

M43 is sold.

Village model now $45.00 and I will throw in a brand new Wustof Dreizack kitchen paring knife :) 3" blade, 7"o.a.l. I have several from a volume purchase at Christmas. Could make a good Karda...who knows.

Can't believe after all the village model discussion that no one wants this one.

Well, it looks like I'll get to find out what all the M-43 hullaballoo is about. To me, it has all the aesthetics of a Roseanne Barr, but I'll try to keep an open mind.

Spence, Spence, Spence! I don't know if you're worthy of such a blade with that attitude.;) (just kidding)

Now you see what I'm up against on a daily basis.
 
Augh!
Missed out on the M43, but more importantly, Mike you have MAIL! :p
Come to papa little villager!
 
GTTM ("the mountain"):D Congrats my brother:D May it always be sharp enough to shave your head and mr. Bigglesworth:D
 
Villagers just aren't sexy. They are kind of like a homely girl in a lineup at the late lamented Mustang Ranch. You've really got to well, um, get to know... never mind.
 
It's just like I said. They get the job done just as well as the pretty ones but for a lot less cost.
